Nah, from what I hear, if I went 20x10 staggered in the rear with a 275 tire, then I may have to roll fenders, stock ride height is pretty high. When I hit the suspension, it may have to be worked on.

ty once again

Now I am unsure what to do for the summer, only thing cosmetic I want to do is smoke the rear and side markers.

After that, cannot decide. Rebuild tranny....pulley swap to 12lbs, foraged internals, meth, spray, cam swap ect......

Going to pick one in the next month and run with it.

They look good, but I don't see anything hooking up on 20" wheels with 275/30 tires.

I mean, eaither way I am going to get owned. You've owned your t/a a lot longer than I have my g8 iirc.

Also, yours is faster than mine by leaps and bounds I am sure of that as well. I don't race for money due to the fact I know my car is not as fast as most of yalls purpose built cars. I have respect for your car and when I GG'ed I will have more respect for it I am sure.

T70 is upwords of 700-800hp max out range? With a nice engine build, I am sure you're at/around mid/high 500 hp/tq.

So a free race, or I can buy you a drink at Sonic or something.

Up to you

I actually hook better with them, I am guessing the 275 vs the 245 stock helps the most. I am tempted to show up at Dorchester this Sun, but afraid it will be packed and not worth it to run.

Hoping for mid 7's.....

The cat scales will not work for his car only lightnings and larger vehicles are accurately weighed on them.
